Hi all,

I want to know whether there is a port available or some one is working on
porting JDK (Java Linux) to Strong ARM platform (Netwinder?).

TIA

It's finished!

1999-03-09 Thread Kevin White

Well, the code anyway.  I have now finished the first version of a java
class wrapper for the linux joystick driver, written a java gui test
program, and it works! ... er, At least it works on my system, with my
jdk, on my distribution, with my joystick, so I'd like to make it
available for others to test. But, as this is my first linux programming
project, I have no clue how to build appropriate makefile for:
1- gotta build the native .c file into a shared library
2- build the java files into a jar
3- need to install the .so created in step 1 into an appropriate
directory. (In the LD_LIBRARY_PATH?)
4- put the .jar file in an appropriate directory in the classpath.
5- How do I put an appropriate "license" on it so it can be used
freely?  I'd like changes to come back to me, so I can be the maintainer
of the thing, but want people to use or improve it, and make it useful.

So,I think there should be:
make clean
make configure - do I need this? maybe to find out where the linux jni
includes are?
make  - to build the so, and the jar files
make install - to install the stuff appropriately

Should I write the doc in javadoc since it's just a set of classes for
an api?  Or in a readme?  Both?  Where do I include the license
descriptions?  Is there a "template" or sample license file somewhere
that I can use?

I appreciate any help in this, since I've never attempted this stuff,
and have never done makefiles, shell scripts, etc.  Where do I start?

Thanks,

JDK 1.2 pre-v1: Missing shared library

1999-03-09 Thread Mark Minas

Hi,

thanks for your work on porting JDK 1.2 to Linux. I've downloaded JDK
1.2 pre-v1 for i386 and have tried to run it on a Pentium PC with 2.0.36
kernel (SuSE 6.0 distribution). Everything is running fine as long as no
X11 window has to be opened. In that case, a shared library
libstdc++-libc6.0-1.so.2 is not found (detailed error message attached).
I know of libstdc++* shared libraries, but this name is strange to me.
Any suggestions?

Log in as root and run these two commands.

After doing that it worked on my RedHat 5.2 box.

JDK 1.2 Success

1999-03-09 Thread Rob Nugent

Folks,

Just a note to say I have JDK1.2 running under RedHat 5.2 successfully, after putting 
in the
recommended symlink for libstdc++-libc6.0-1.so.2.

All my Java2D code works fine, AffineTransforms, Stroke, Image manipulation etc.
Next I have to try to get JavaComm working.

I am seeing an occasional segv, but nothing I can get a reproduce on to raise a bug 
report.

Thanks to the porting team for all the significant hard work - it is appreciated.

Rob

Re: Clipboard cut & paste and JVM/X/Swing

1999-03-09 Thread Jim Watson

This was the first thing I looked at in the source, the reference to
"CLIPBOARD"  is still hard coded in the source which I think is calling
native code to set up the selection using XLib, atoms and all that, so I
would guess the answer must be no. I think this is a platform specific issue
for X. If it uses the other, then I suspect it would interfere with any
applications relying on selections for un-do ?

problems with UDP broadcasts in 1.2 pre1

1999-03-09 Thread Alex Harin

It seems like 1.2 pre1 cannot do UDP broadcasts. DatagramSocket.send
throws permission denied if broadcast address is specified. I 
looked at the kernel source (I use 2.0.36) and it looks like 
before broadcasting is allowed SO_BROADCAST socket option needs to be
set on the socket. jdk 1.2 on NT dows not have this problem.

Cheers,

Alex

I withdraw my question... it's apparently already there (my mistake).
What I'm missing is a native piece from Sun -- not part of the JDK --
that provides back-end support for debugging. Not sure what it'll take
to make that available for Linux.

jdk1.2: libfontmanager.so: Unsatisfied Link

1999-03-09 Thread B. Scott Boding

I'm having a problem getting the JDK1.2 to run on my work machine. It's a
RedHat5.0 with a handful of upgrades. Anything non-gui related works fine, but
when I try to do anything graphical, I get the following error:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError:
/usr/local/jdk1.2/jre/lib/i386/libfontmanager.so:
/usr/local/jdk1.2/jre/lib/i386/libfontmanager.so: undefined symbol:
__deregister_frame_info

I've tried searching through all the recent emails but I haven't found any
answer to this problem. Can someone help me out?


On the flip side, jdk1.2 work great on my machine at home which is a RedHat5.2
system. With only the minor tweak listed several times here I had it up and
running with very little effort! It was nice to generate a new set of enhanced
javadocs. Great job guys!

Re: terrible fonts in linux-jdk1.2

1999-03-09 Thread Stuart Ballard

I get the warning about zapf dingbats too (lots of times on starting a
single swing app) and the application seems to get the font metrics
wrong - the text appears at the normal size, but there are huge gaps
between lines (as if it was all doublespaced).

The application in question is jEdit, which is available from
www.gjt.org/~sp/jedit.html. Unfortunately, the version I am using is
1.4pre1, which is now obsoleted by 1.4final. I'm downloading this now to
see if it has the same problem. I'll post back shortly and let you know.

Thanks for the port guys - this is great!

Stuart.

PS could you include my address in any replies to this, as I read the
list by the archive on the web and it only updates daily.

The same issue affects jEdit 1.4final. I don't have any other swing/AWT
applications to test, but I do know that jEdit works okay on JDK1.2 on
windows. If there's any other information I can give to help track this
down, let me know.

By the way, the source code to jEdit is available at the url that I
gave, in case that helps tracking down the problem. I doubt it's a jEdit
issue, but it might help to figure out which method it's calling that
isn't working.

Oh, and I forgot to give information about my system before - it's a Red
Hat 5.2 box (upgraded from 5.1) with KDE/kwm as the window manager. I
haven't changed anything with the X server or the X fonts from the
default that came with RH.

Thanks again for the port - this is a great day for Java and Linux ;)

Stuart.

bugs bugs bugs, maybe not.

1999-03-09 Thread Fabian E. Schonholz

Hello;

I tried running jdk1.2 on RedHat 5.2 with no luck. No matter what I do
libjava.so is not found. So I upgraded the libs, such as glibc, libc,
egcc, libstdc++, etc. I still get the same error, plus, I can not run
jdk1.1.7 due to a missing symbol.

A suggestion is to provide different compiled versions, such as one for
Debian, SuSE, RedHat 5.2 and 5.8.X, etc., for both, jdk1.1.7 and jdk1.2
like KDE does. I volunteer to do the RedHat 5.2 and 5.8.X. Another
suggestion is to get the different distributions involved.

My big stupid mistake

1999-03-09 Thread Kevin White

Ok, I'm really stupid.  Please don't flame me for how stupid I was.  I
was writing a Makefile and testing it.  In the make file I have:


#make a directory we can use for jarring things up
mkdir jar
#copy the com/kevinsworld/. directory structure
cp -r com jar
cd jar
#don't want java files in the jar, just class files
rm com/kevinsworld/linux/devices/*.java
#create the jar
jar -c0vf com
cd ..
rm -r jar

First problem: the cd apparently doesn't work in the make file, so it
actually removed my java source files from where I really, _really_
didn't want them removed.  Oh, where is linux's undelete feature!  (You
know, the "gotta protect the morons" feature...).  So, how do I "cd" in
a makefile?  Jar only works correctly if you're in the directory of what
you want to jar.  i.e.: if I am in jar and say "jar -c0vf jar/com" it
puts the files in the jar as if they were in package
jar/com/kevinsworld/... rather than com/kevinsworld/...  So, how do I cd
in a makefile?

Second problem. I was stupid and didn't think to copy my source files
elsewhere.  This is a relatively small project I was just working on and
hadn't backed up yet.  (I already admitted to stupidity).  Can I
disassemble my java .class files to get something to work from to
recreate the source?

Thanks for any help,
The Moron

Make executes each command line in its own subshell. You ran the "cd"
command in a shell. Then you ran the "rm" in another shell. And so on.
If you want commands that change the shell environment (such as changing
current directory) to affect later commands, you need to combine them in
the same line, using the ";" separator. For example:

cd jar; rm com/kevinsworld/linux/devices/*.java

There are decompilers around. You might try mocha... it's free. Look for
it in finer Java emporiums.

Servlets Mapping

1999-03-09 Thread Ajay Vij

Hi Folks

I am writing Servlets using JRun Pro 2.3 and Apache 1.3. I have a
problem in placing the Servlets Source files in different dir other than
the JRun Pro default Servlets dir. I even tried doing the same with the
Java Web Server 1.1.3. But could not map the Servlets dir to a different
dir of my choice.

Help needed

Bye
Ajay

Re: My big stupid mistake - Thanks!

1999-03-09 Thread Kevin White

Thanks to all the pointers.  I decided to get jad as the decompiler to
use, and it worked great.  I still have to test all the class files
after compiling them from what it creates, but going through the source,
jad sure did a good job.

Also thanks for the pointers on the Makefile problems I had.
